On Saturday afternoon, the restaurant remained closed during normal business hours, with corrugated metal concealing its windows. A sticker on the front door announced surveillance cameras are in place, presumably as a means to deter crime.

The worker at the restaurant didn't wish to be named, but he described to The Star what he saw on extended surveillance footage that has not been made public.The suspect, wearing a brown shirt with white stripes, demanded money and pulled out a gun."He's scared he's going to die," the man said of Koppu.As people ducked or ran for cover around him, Koppu bolted directly away from the suspect, toward the back of the store."(Koppu) ran, so he shot him" in the back, the man said, shaking his head. He said Koppu didn't know how to work the register.Koppu died shortly after being taken to a hospital.

sad, very sad: never start running/make swift move, when being gun-threatened.
